Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Cares about his patients.
Had a cataract removed in the morning and the surgery was a success. The entire staff at Monticello surgery center was amazing. After I got home to recover and do post surgery care developed a terrible headache about 8pm and it got so bad I was unable to sleep. At 1:15AM I could not stand the pain any longer and called Dr. Gonce at home and he met me at his office at 2 AM to release the pressure built up around the incision. Dr. Gonce used a syringe to release the pressure and within minutes the headache was gone. How many Doctors would meet you at his office at 2 AM when you already had an appt. scheduled for the next day at 8AM? A very caring Physician that I highly recommend.

Very friendly staff. I felt very confident with this doctor. I have cataracts and interviewed 3 different surgeons. I want to keep my nearsightedness due to my job. I am looking for someone to do monovision. Not all surgeons can do that type of surgery with success. Dr. Gonce spent a long time with me explaining the procedures and everything that would entail the surgery. I felt he completely answered all of my questions and brought up information that I didn't think to ask.
